Beans Fry

This is a quick recipe for beans fry. I will try and give some tips for a quick meal / side disk. If you are tired of boiling beans this is a better alternative.

Assemble these ingredients.

• 300-500g of sliced green beans (Hint: Supermarkets have frozen packets, which you can just thaw in the microwave for 2 Min's)
• 2 pieces Dried red chillies (Substitute with fresh chillies if not available)
• Diced garlic, maybe 3 pods or to taste
• 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 2 teaspoons salt (or to taste)
• Oil preferably Olive Oil, maybe 2 tablespoons.

First, if you have frozen green beans, thaw them in the microwave. If fresh, then slice them. Heat the oil up in a deep fry pan or a vessel. When the oil is reasonably hot, put the mustard seeds in and fry them until they start to crackle.
Now, add the chillies and the beans, garlic, sugar and salt.
Fry till the beans are softened.
